Hinds offers another sensitive adaptation of classic literature in this beautifully colored and evocative rendition of Shakespeare’s Macbeth. Basing his version on both the full canonical text and research into Macbeth’s historical period and how that era was understood in Shakespeare’s time, Hinds engages students, researchers, and drama fans on several levels.

Time-traveling teen cops, more than one rebooted superhero, creeping dread, and girl power aplenty characterize this year’s 10 best graphic novels, reviewed in Booklist from March 1, 2014, to February 15, 2015.

Asked if I read literary fiction, I’d probably admit, “No, not so much.” After all, I served on RUSA’s Reading List, which recognizes outstanding genre fiction, not Notable Books. Yet, when I consider the authors I love and whose books I always read, I find that many fall into the literary-fiction category. I recently reread Madame Bovary and Pride and Prejudice.

This year’s top 10 graphic novels, reviewed in Booklist between March 1, 2014, and February 15, 2015, cover a broad array of genres, styles, and formats, from the ingeniously simple to the weird and woolly.

Travel was a treat in the days when I was young, and my family took automobile vacations every summer. By which I mean, we hopped into the family’s old green Chevy and drove for two solid weeks, seeing the sights and staying every night at motels, which in those long-gone days were called motor courts. I’d love to think that at least one was named the Bide-a-Wee Inn, but I suspect that’s just my imagination at work.

This is the third time Booklist Senior Editor Ilene Cooper has had the pleasure of interviewing David Almond. The first time was in conjunction with the publication of Skellig(1999), Almond’s first book for children. He talked then about coming from a family of storytellers. When they spoke again in 2001, he had just won the Michael L. Printz Award forKit’s Wilderness(2000), a book he said was exceptionally difficult to write—“a nightmare”—unlike Skellig, which “came to him like a gift.“

This year’s top 10 books on sustainability, reviewed in Booklist between February 15, 2014, and February 1, 2015, offer a range of perspectives on conserving our planet, from the fossil fuels buried deep underground to the rain forests speckling its surface.
